    If that's what they wanted, then it's not really a fail.

    The only real fail is "god smacked"

    Fajitas, it need more fanjitas not to be a fail!

    I honestly like it! I wish I had the guts to do something like that when I was pregnant, when pregnant you rarely feel beautiful and this makes the woman look not only beautiful but still feminine.

    I think it would have been better if it were less posed maybe?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,014 ✭✭✭Eirebear


    Not really my style or taste, but ive seen a lot worse Maternity shots to be honest.

    All the "christian" bullcrap is where the fail is at if you ask me.

    She's well up for it if you can provide the DNA?

    Not a fail at all, that looks great.

    Can we cut to the chase and get to the 'what is art' discussion???? ;)

    why fail????? I don't get it.

    I personally don't like the image on many levels, but if its a success for the couple and for the photographer then pfttt.... it must be art. :D

    Doesnt look like a "great" photo to me, theres no suggestion as to what the hell is going on and its a bit too bright.
    I don't really get the Fail but though. :)

    Not really a fail tbh....

    At least it's not your standard standing by open window with flowing net curtain type gank.

    Personally I think a lit cigarette in the guys left hand would smarten it up a lot. Make it look really cool. But ciggies make everything look sexy and interesting.

    I think in her left hand would be better.

    Nah....way too obvious, may aswell wheel in the flowy curtains. I was toying with the idea of a yo-yo in her left hand but that'd be too pretentious.
    Bloke smoking...she's just put one out in her can of Stella on the ground beside her ( it's not in shot but suggested in her general demeanour. leaves the viewer with a little work to do but worth it).

    One thing to remember is that when you work you take pictures for your client not other photographers, if the customer likes what you produce then nothing else matters.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,009 ✭✭✭KarmaGarda


    It's a rubbish photo. The noise on her face has made it look completely pixelated, the same has happened to him. And she has an abnormally large belly. Needs to stay off the kitkats methinks

    Sure, make baseless accusations at a fellow while he was asleep! The poses are incredible awkward and forced.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,567 ✭✭✭mloc


    He looks completely out of place in the sweater-vest on a beach. It's crap.

    Typical potentially good idea ruined by half doing it and watering it down with undoubtedly Godhumping clean imagery.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,319 ✭✭✭sineadw


    are they pasted onto the background?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,763 ✭✭✭Fenster


    Looks more like a bright off-camera flash combined with strong airbrushing of her leg and belly (stretch marks?). It is doubly sad as it looks like they had this magnificently dark and stormy evening on the beach that they could have utilized for the shots. :(

    Godsmack - one of the best heavy metal bands ever!

    Though what that has to do with the photo is beyond me :)
